    I tried to watch basketball today. I really tried. Not my cup of tea. Went for a walk to get some perspective instead. Go Rockets!

    P.S. Why don't they hit the guy when he is about to shoot? Seems dumb.

    Golden State had won 16 straight home playoff games. That is a serious win.

    Wildly entertaining game. I really think Houston has a legitimate shot at this (~40%). The NBA season has officially started.

    I've heard whoever wins two out of the next three wins this thing!

    Still waiting for the ECF to start.

    Im still in shock tbh. Rockets finally gooned it up a little bit and exposed the Hampton 5 for being as soft as they actually are. Game 5 will tell us if the Rockets have actually transformed, Ariza and Tucker at least give me some hope. This series comes down to who puts fewer pussies on the floor now.

    My crystal ball shows Zaza making an appearance in the first quarter as the counter-goon. Six fouls in, say, 4 minutes.

    I like the road team in the final three games in both series.

    The Cavs will win tonight then take a night off back home then win Game 7

    The Warriors and Rockets will continue to go every other game and that math favors the Warriors.

    I am scared of Boston though. Pretty confident on the Warriors. Houston saved some reputations last night, Might be satisfied

    Thats what Im worried about. If they come out and win game 5 like that then we have to starting thinking about them actually pulling this off.

    Warriors will win the series. Last night:

    Iggy didn't play at all. Klay played like shit. Durant played like shit. Steph played ok, nothing special. Draymond was decidedly m'eh - 5 turnovers bad. Livingston and Swaggy P stunk.

    Kerr was a dumbfuck several times - should have called a TO on their last possession and got a good look for anybody. All 5 Warriors were on the same side of the court and it took Ariza bear-hugging Thompson for the miss.

    And STILL the Warriors had a chance to force overtime with .5 left.

    All that won't happen again concurrently. Warriors by 15+ in Game 5.

    Its almost like they struggled agaisnt an athletic team playing real defense.

    if Houston wins game 5 then they have a shot at winning the series. If Golden State wins they will 100% win it.

    I could have sworn that for years I’ve heard people minimize the impact that Iggy has on this team

    That's how Cleveland turned it on them a couple years ago. 12 point quarters

    They thought they had the win quite easily.

    It’s not much different than any other Cavs game, but they need LeBron to go off.

    Nice. The playoffs just started. A little scuffle.

    Refs will puss out and double T or eject someone.

    I think we're going to see 2 game sevens.
